Students should be familiar with the general information booklet which contains extensive information relating to enrolment. Students should be particularly careful to read all information sent by the university.
Details of enrolment times and places accompany the offer letter mailed from VTAC to students who apply through the VTAC system. Such students are required to attend the university to enrol and should note that the VTAC card must be presented at the time of enrolment. Payment of fees and selection of a payment option under the higher education contribution scheme is also required at the time of enrolment.
Direct entry students normally enrol by mail, although they may attend the Gippsland campus to complete the necessary procedures.
Students who wish to undertake study within the School of Humanities and Social Sciences select their study program either on application (for distance education/direct entry places) or at the time of enrolment (for on-campus places). The subjects studied at first-year level should reflect at least in part, the majors and/or minors intended by the student. Course advisers are available to assist students, but not to select a student's course. Students are expected to have familiarised themselves with relevant course information provided in university publications.
All applicants who have been offered a place in a course, and who do not wish to take up that offer, may apply for a deferment of admission in writing. Deferral will normally be granted for twelve months unless the student expresses an intention to take another tertiary place elsewhere. When students are contacted later in the year about their intentions for the following year, they will be asked to confirm that they did not undertake another tertiary course in the period of deferment.
All continuing students - internal, distance education and part-time - are forwarded application forms and course information to enable them to re-enrol by mail. The head of school may consider students' previous end-of-year assessment results when approving re-enrolment applications, and students will be advised of any necessary adjustments to their study program.
For later-year students, information on study options is available from the relevant course adviser. Any proposed changes to the selection of subjects must be lodged in writing with student administration, and must be formally approved by the head of school (or nominee).
